I’ve been trouble shooting getting remote access to my server for a few days now and have had no success. I just want to see if I can get higher quality out of my remote server. It’s currently capped at 328p 0.7Mps when accessed remote through the plex relay. If I can’t get remote access established, I’m wondering if using hardware-accelerated transcoding might help me in receiving higher quality video through the plex relay.

In most cases transcoding is actually decreasing the quality.

The only way you’re going to get better quality is if you configure remote access so most things direct play
